β¦ Synopsis
It is shown that the axiom 'For any points x, y, z such that y is between x and z, there is a right triangle having x and z as endpoints of the hypotenuse and y as foot of the altitude to the hypotenuse', when added to three-dimensional Euclidean geometry over arbitrary ordered fields, is weaker than the axiom 'Every line which passes through the interior of a sphere intersects that sphere'.

We consider the problem of estimating the precision matrix (7 &1 ) under a fully invariant convex loss. Suppose that there exists a minimax constant risk estimator 8 (say) for this problem. K. Krishnamoorthy and A. K. Gupta have proposed an operation which transforms this estimator into an orthogona
We prove some partial results concerning the following problem: Assume that F is a finite field, a i is a complex number for each i # F such that a 0 =0, a 1 =1, |a i | =1 for all i # F "[0], and i # F a i+j aΓ i =&1 for all i # F "[0]. Does it follow that the function i Γ a i is a multiplicative ch
